As soon as a religion comes to dominate it has as its opponents all those who would have been its first disciples.
There are no facts, only interpretations.
Convictions are more dangerous enemies of truth than lies.
Mystical explanations are considered deep. The truth is that they are not even superficial.
People who comprehend a thing to its very depths rarely stay faithful to it forever. For they have brought its depths into the light of day: and in the depths there is always much that is unpleasant to see.
There are women who, however you may search them, prove to have no content but are purely masks. The man who associates with such almost spectral, necessarily unsatisfied beings is to be commiserated with, yet it is precisely they who are able to arouse the desire of the man most strongly: he seeks for her soul -- and goes on seeking.
The cure for love is still in most cases that ancient radical medicine: love in return.
There is not enough love and goodness in the world for us to be permitted to give any of it away to imaginary things.
Nietzsche - various works.
